My bonus is tied to product revenue, even though I don’t control roadmap or pricing. When things slip, my payout slips too. Is that how PMM bonuses usually work?

It’s all sort of unfair, isn’t it?

If creatives had control over product quality, if they could make recommendations on what a company should do differently, the way they engage their customers even input on what the strategy plan might be… it would make sense.

We get this tiny sliver of control in a much much bigger process and yet our promotions, bonuses or pay is tied to metrics that encapsulates everything that goes into a brand’s performance.

at my company our bonuses are multiplied by indvidual performance and company performance. kind of can't control the company performance but everyone is affected by it

Generally, bonuses are reflections of the performance of the company except for sales team so it makes sense that the performance of the company impacts payouts

I think I just screwed up on a call with a recruiter. He asked what my salary expectations were and I wasn’t thinking. I threw out a number that is about what I’m making now including my bonus.

I’ve been at my company for 8 months. I just found out another designer who has been here for several years gets an annual bonus at the end of the fiscal year. I have never been told about a bonus and haven’t gotten one yet for the previous fiscal year that ended In July. Should I have been told I get a bonus when I signed on or are they typically a surprise?
